An unexpected event




Yup. Darren had his braces put on today. Poor guy.

He had an appointment today to get his retainer refitted as he had broken a retainer 'rule' by eating a tootsie roll at school last Friday and one side of the retainer had popped out. Thankfully we were able to push it sort of back into place until our appointment today.

Turns out Darren's teeth had moved so quickly he didn't need to keep his retainer in and they decided they would put the braces on right then and there! This came as quite a surprise to me but Darren was such a trooper.

So here's Darren's new temporary smile for the next year.

Here's lookin' at you, kid.
